Healthy Change? – get the facts about the appealing promises – HumbleDollar

Clearly, there’s a growing frustration with the current U.S. system. Surveys show that 70% of Americans support Medicare-for-All. But many Americans are also confused about what a single-payer system means.

For instance, in a recent survey, 47% of respondents believed they would be able to keep their current insurance under such a system. We are years away from a major change in the U.S. health care system—years likely filled with heated rhetoric and contentious debate. It’s crucial for Americans to keep their eyes wide open, rather than accepting some appealing promise out of frustration.
